Travis Scott is providing emergency food assistance to those impacted by the Texas winter freeze amid the pandemic.
Scott (né Jacques Bermon Webster II), 28, and his Cactus Jack Foundation partnered with Mayor Sylvester Turner to launch a food assistance program that aids Houston residents affected by the crisis. Food distribution began last week.
The Houston native Grammy-nominated rapper and his foundation joined forces with the City of Houston and the Houston Health Foundation to provide approximately 50,000 hot meals to local community members.
Winter Storm Uri, officially named the North American Winter Storm, caused widespread heavy snowfall and subzero temperatures across Texas earlier this month.
Winter Storm Uri also places community members coping with COVID-19 or coronavirus-related health conditions at higher risk.
On Feb. 17, it was announced that the Electric Reliability Council of Texas had directed utilities to restore electricity for more than 600,000 impacted customers.
Houston lifted its notice on Sunday, while the City of Austin announced Tuesday that it would lift its restriction on Wednesday morning at 8 a.m. local time — citing that with 120 million gallons of water in reserves, Austin’s water system had “safely entered into a healthy range.
